re: WP8.1 Start Screen & Backgrounds

For my start screen, I like to go minimal and put focus on some essential apps.
I'm currently experimenting in combining the parallax effect and Skinery themes apps,
to create a kind of pseudo parallax effect.
The goal is to add an effect of multiple screen. And its nice to have somekind of theme.

Your clock app and actual time in upper right don't seem synced. Is that a tile update issue?

re: WP8.1 Start Screen & Backgrounds

this is very cool imo. can i ask what clock tile this is? Ive had some issues recently with 'Clock Hub' and looking for an alternative. and did you use Start Perfect or similar to arrange your tiles?

The clock tile is TimeMe. It works well for the time but so so for the battery level. The only tool I used to arrange things was Blank Tiles. I used it for the space between the calendar and Battery Saver.

The folder tile in the bottom right corner is my "ellipses, ..." Tile with all my other "most often used apps" since the damn games are listed in the app list makes it sooooo loooong

re: WP8.1 Start Screen & Backgrounds

I apologize if this isn't the correct topic to ask, but I recently put 8.1 on my HTC 8X, am I correct that there's no way to get any tiles to be screen wide? The largest tiles I can get are 2 column wide, but nothing goes to 3 column wide. I think I've seen some start screen shots here that have full wide tiles.
Thanks.

No there are not tiles 3 wide :(

2x1 is our biggest, wish they made a 2x2 or a 2x1.5
